Turkey Kcd still goes to school
but IiIh fighting ability has been
such that lie has been dubbed the
"Ited Tornado," and he has been
a consistent winner. While ho has
not hud the experience of the sea

not afraid of any of them. He's
won most, of his fights by the

himself as a fighter and is confi

considerable cxporionuo and just
about enough to make him n good

STRIBLING KEY

Arrival in New York Tonight
Will Mark Attempt to De
termine Who Fights and
Where.
NEW YOItK, Jan. 8. (ft) A
Mhroud of ailencc inve toped the
great heavyweight muddle today
while all concerned awaited the
arrival of V. L. (Young) Stribllng
and his manager, "la" Htribling,
tho key men in the question of
who will fight whom for whatt
chainplonHhip. The iStrihllngs aru

No matter who may fight or

KecniH certain Ht rib ling will bo one

tho direction indicated by the

a battle between Strlbling and
Jack Sharkey, tho winner to be
recognized as heavyweight cham
pion, dilcawmii Husy.
At tho saiiio time, Nate Lew In,
Chicago Htadlum matchmaker, went
about his preparations for signing

Lewie, Sidney Strotz, president
of tiio Chicago Stadium corpora
tion, and Joe. Jacobs, Kchmeling'x
manager, wound up a long confer
ence early yesterday morning and
departed to mako up for lost sleep
without making any announcement
but It' wan presumed they had been
attempting to find their way out
of two tangled that may interfere
with the 'proposed Chicago bout.
One concerned tho poll tho Na
tional 'Uoxlng association J now
conducting as to whether the
heavyweight tltlo shall be declared
vacant, but It seems likely that
tho Herman will be given a period
of grace if he shows wlgns of ar

FISTIC
With Rod and Gun
By Ernest Postal and
Dick Green
Owners of goldfish ponds In
Med ford have suffered during -the
paM few weeks through the visit
of a kingrishcr bird which, in one
local pond, caught 40 fish and de
pleted' the supply In a short t mo.
Medford people arc asked to watch
tho bird and end Its existence, If
poHslble, as a protection for other
pondfl In tho city.
A number of local anglers have
taken an Interest In the agitation
started up north in tho elimina
tion of tho use of almon eggs for
bait, and Ray the cause is a Just
one. They claim there is no fish
ing as enjoyable , as fly-fishing.
which tends to give angling a
greater degree of respect. These
anglern are against the use of eggs
in catching trout, as unsportsman
like, but deem them permissible
in catching steel head and salmon.
They would use flies exclusively
when fishing in lakes and would
have nothing to do with spoon or
plugs, and say those anglers who
huve a failing for the ue of eggs-
could learn to like the fliea Just as
well.
The quail population of the
country has shown gradual de
crease, blamed largely on hawks,
cats and other predators. In addi
tion to the elements and unsports
manlike killing. The elements can
not be governed, but steps can be
taken to remedy other conditions,
such as offering bounties on the
birds of prey, with particular xit
tention paid to the sharp-shinned
varitles, Tho cat family Is nn
other element of destruction, es
pecially those half-wild anlmtUs
that refuse to stay home, and wan
der about the countryside killing
birds. Hawks are difficult to kill
and are ranked near tho top when
It comes to killing quail. Tho
houHp eat that people have a habit
of roleaslng out In the country, to
be rid of them, quickly take to
bird hunting for food, and In cer
tain eetlons they are numerous.
A bounty Is also suggested for the
cats.
The Klamath river is regarded as
tho Important steelhead rftream in
the state of California, and is well
known for It salmon. However,
the stream Is continually threat
ened by commercial fishormen,
contemplated construction of dams
and from water diversions. The
tuking of spawn from the river
for distribution in other parts of
the state is another danger that is
arousing California sportsmen. Ef
forts nro now being made to close
the dream to mining during cer
tain months of tho year, to keep
Hh flow free from mud, hut the
action Is attracting considerable
opposition and II Is doubtful If the
next California date legislature
will consider the matter seriously,
on grounds it will impair tho sun
ny state's mining Industry.
Tho -tenderfoot who was sent out
to round up tho lumlw on a west
ern sheep ranch, and at nightfall
closed the corral on 50 panting
jackrabblts, met his match recently
In twyi native Oklahomans who set
out In an airplane to rldo herd on
a flock of wild' geese.
They succeeded, but too well.
Circling about tho river banks, they
forced together an enormous flock,
and drove tho birds southward
along the river. Here "hunters"
were waiting In blinds, and fired
almost polntblank Into the mass of
birds.
The fun was taken out of this
new form of slaughter, however,
when tho "herd riders" In the nir
plane learned that game wardens
had witnessed the Incident. Okla
homa, like many ether states with
progressive fish and game commis
sions, prohibits the hunting of birds
from airplanes, nnd the two air
plane pilots paid flncct of $131 each.

The Medford high school basket. .

five last night, on their own mnall
floor, 17 to 11. It wus the final
hard practice of the week, beforot
the first conference game of Mm
season, with Grant Pass at Crants
Pass Friday night.
The locals started a well-oiled
offensive In the lat quarter that
put the game on Ice. Up to that
time they played ragged at times
and lacked coordination.
Tuesday night the Itoguo ltlver
team defeated the Grants Pass
squad, 22 to 19. in an upset. The
margin of victory was greater than
the score indicated, as Rogue River
used practically ono team throuch
out the game, while the Joseph

effort to wear out tho smaller
school. Tho country boys refused
lo tire.
Tho local team will hold a final
practice this afternoon and will
